Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. In addition, allow for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the region's conditions — for example, age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates from Spanish lenders generally fall in the range of 3.5–4.5%, though rates vary by lender and individual profile. We recommend obtaining a mortgage offer in principle before reserving.
What are the ongoing running costs for this apartment?
Community fees are currently listed at 0 EUR per month; buyers should confirm the final amount with the developer before exchange. No IBI (annual property tax) figure is yet available for this new-build unit — a rateable value will be set by the local authority after completion. The apartment carries an energy rating of G.
How can I arrange a viewing?
You can request an in-person visit or a live video viewing through OceanHome. Video viewings are available for buyers who are unable to travel to Estepona at short notice, and we can arrange these at a time that suits you. Contact us via the form on this page or call our Estepona office directly.
Is this apartment suitable for short-term holiday rental?
Las Mesas is an active area for tourist rentals, and Estepona as a whole draws consistent visitor numbers throughout the year. The development's communal pool, gym, and proximity to the coast add to its appeal for holiday tenants. To let the property short-term, you will need a tourist licence from the Junta de Andalucía. We can put you in touch with a local management company to discuss realistic occupancy expectations for this specific area.
What does the purchase process involve for an overseas buyer?
You will first need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all property transactions in Spain. The process typically begins with a reservation agreement and a holding deposit to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras) under which a further deposit — commonly 10% of the purchase price — is paid. Completion takes place before a notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled. We recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor before you sign anything.
